Ok, as a libertarian, I support your right to inhale THC until all the neurons of your hippocampus self-suicide and you become a senile idiot. But I do not support you forcing me to inhale this disgusting thing. If you smoke this shit in your back yard, guess what? The smoke, being a volatile gas, spreads around in the air and poisons it for a few hundred feet around the area where you are smoking. You are forcing me to take your THC, and I don't want to. You potheads sons of bitch need to understand that there are people who do not enjoy marijuana and what it does to one's memory and mental acuity, and that when you throw your smoke around you are forcing other people to inhale it. So, you fucking disgusting hippies should go deep into the woods to enjoy your vice. You do not have the right to smoke at home. Alcohol is completely different because the harm it does is only done to the person that is drinking it. The same goes for cocaine, heroin and amphetamines. But cigarettes and marijuana are a different story because, since they release gases containing both carcinogens and their psychoactive compunds, they affect other people who made the choice not to use them. So fuck off and take that shit a few miles into the woods to smoke it. .......

We cannot stop Carbon monoxide emission because all engines, except electric, which are extremely impractical, emit it. But any pothead can have the decency of moving a few hundred feet away from non-smokers before lighting marijuana. That is called being civilized, you f.aggot. Also, Carbon monoxide released into the air has very low accute toxicity, whilst marijuana smoke is loaded with carcinogens and neurotoxins. Terrible argument.

I personally feel that alcohol should be a prescription drug. It's just as powerful (or more so) than anything else in the "right" quantities... and it is ubiquitous, and can be sold around the clock.

I hate alcohol and I hate alcoholics just as much as you hate nearby dope smokers. I don't smoke dope, but I don't care if I smell it in the air, unless I'm at a concert where I just cannot fucking breathe and I've paid big bucks for my tickets.

Very good points...

You should care. Studies have shown that the small amounts of THC in airborne marijuana is enough to damage or even destroy neurons in the hippocampus, responsible for learning and long-term memory.

I neither smoke (cigars, marijuana, cigarettes, etc.) nor drink alcohol. I think such substances are bad for you, especially so those that have an affect upon your ability to think clearly. I don't begrudge someone a fine cigar, I just prefer not to indulge myself. The same holds true for adult beverages although I despise public and even private drunkards.

I once had a neighbor that smoked a lot of pot. A classic example of an "idiot/savant" minuse the latter. If you make it legal to smoke that shit all you're doing is making it legal to make yourself even more stupid in public and giving Buddha knows how many simpletons yet another route to destroying their lives and those of family and friends vis a vis association.

Don't like my words? Then you'll probably just pack another bowl with that shit and smoke yourself further into oblivion. What you do has an affect upon others. You're probably just too stoned to realize it. FTN.
